I have many...and the ones I like the most ARE NOT ever sold in the Barrooms or even the finest hotels!: First choice: 1.Westvleteren XII made by the Monks.Exquisite! But if I must lower my standards and go to a nice hotel bar... 2. Stella Artois,a pilsner.Smooth,clean,not hopsy.Very drinkable for the summer. But it has to be "on tap"only!They even give you a special glass to drink it in! 3.And since I am 1/2 Irish...then I have to go with Guinness Stout! But either on Tap(preferred)or in the can,not the bottle!!Why?The can offers a widget in the base of a beer can that creates a nucleation point, allowing the CO2 to be released from the liquid which comes into contact with it,thus assisting in maintaining head on the beer.In other words...Guinness remains a thick foamy head much longer when poured from a can vs a bottle of Guinness with no widget.If tapped from the barrel,the head is equally thick,but the bartender usually has to take his time and wait,let the head settle down a bit,then fill the glass again.You can almost cut that beer "head"with a knife!

I stick a couple from the fridge into the freezer for 40 minutes for super cold but pre frozen. As for the Irish influence, I like Jameson, but that’s not beer!

Westvleteren 8 (blue cap) (formerly Extra), 8% ABV. Westvleteren 12 (yellow cap) (formerly Abt), a 10.2% So,not all of them are like wine.Depends.I should have been more specific. Not a Bud drinker,but Stella A is very smooth and summer drinkable. It kind of is similar to Corona,but with no crappy aftertaste. Everyone tastes vary.But if I am having an Irish stew or a German Knockwurst Sauerkraut sandwich(heavy),then Guinness is a good choice... at least to many.
